URUMQI, May 26 (Xinhua) -- Before the crack of dawn each day, Ayimurat Dawuletbek can be seen on the lakeside of a national wetland park in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. He moors his boat between reed marshes and sets up a monocular telescope and a camouflaged digital SLR camera.
Yang Kexin, a woman born after the 1990s, has successfully retrieved over 600 pieces of meteoric stones from depopulated zones in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region over a period of five years. Yang's keen interest in meteorites dates back to her childhood, when she frequently admired the stars in the sky at night.
The famous Russian writer Fodor Dostoevsky said: "If you wish to glimpse inside a human soul and get to know a man, don't bother analyzing his ways of being silent, of talking, of weeping; you will get better results if you just watch him laugh." To bring the truth and stories of Xinjiang, we have met with several Uygur children, who wear genuine smiles and would love to share their happiness with us all.
